I promise, TM. I did not tell him. And I know he didn’t read the post with your questions because can’t even get on the blog at his office. Even if he wanted to. He just has this sixth sense about things that I want him to do. And most of the time, I don’t even have to ask. He… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {Sundays}
When I started Sunday Snapshot, it’s whole purpose was to create a way for me to remember. Remember my kids. Remember our life. All of it. Down to the littlest details. And Sundays at our house are something I don’t want to forget. It’s my favorite day of the week. Sundays aren’t remarkable for how they start, What we wear,… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: Isabelle
When I was trying to decide who to focus on for this week’s Sunday Snapshot, out of desperation my criteria were kept to a minimum. I mean, there are only so many hours in a day. And Saturday is my day to get pictures. So, after a long morning out at a baseball game, and a messy lunch at Taco… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {how great is our God}
If you look closely enough, it’s always apparent. But in the spring, there’s just no denying. Our God is great. And He loves to indulge His children with His handiwork. Somehow, even in the midst of this my 41st spring, He never fails to take my breath away. As life sprouts up anew… after a season of seeming lifelessness. In… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {the outcome}
My sister told me I’d set myself up for this. She told me that after my last post, you guys would expect some pictures of the ‘outcome’. Too-tight dress, shapewear, dangly earrings and all. Ooops. But, since I love you guys, and I knew I’d feel guilty if I never got another picture of the evening, I had Asher take… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {the beginning}
Five years ago today. April 11, 2005, we placed our order to Joe and Jennifer at My Adoption Website to host our travel journal to Isabelle. Their very first order. Looking back, I realize that Chris and I envisioned our “Journey to Isabelle” as an isolated event. We assumed that we would bring her home, and our lives would continue… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {Easter}
Today was a day we’d been looking forward to for a long, looong time. It didn’t quite turn out the way we’d planned, though. But I really don’t want to talk about why. About the massive egg hunt our church has been talking up for weeks and weeks. Filling our kids minds with visions of bouncy houses, endless supplies of… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {G.G.}
My mother isn’t known as ‘mom’ around here. That’s my moniker now. She’s been long promoted to grandmother status. So we call her G.G. Or Grandma Gayle, if you want to get all technical about it. And yes, I am aware that, at 72, she looks more like my sister than my mother. Thank you. My mom and I have… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {a man and a woman}
God blessed us yesterday. I mean, He blesses us every day, but we were keenly aware of it yesterday. In big ways and in little ways. We were actually both ready (showered, dressed, house clean, kids bathed, kids fed, kiddie pep talk completed, bribes in place) with enough gumption and wherewithal to have Asher take our picture to commemorate this… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {Saturdays}
Saturdays at our house used to be lazy days. A day for hanging out. A day for putting our feet up and watching the clouds go by. Or watching clouds go by on TV. We were easy like that. But those days are looong gone. Our Saturdays now, or at least a few hours of each Saturday, are devoted to… Read More
